So I have been sick since returning from the Conference. Joy. It started to rear it's ugly head Wednesday on the last day of the Conference. By Thursday morning, it was a full fledged burning chest cough. After a few days of antibiotics & cold meds, parking my butt on the couch and OD-ing on Netflix, I finally felt good enough to spend Sunday - in bed - sleeping... ;-)At least I got the Christmas tree mantel finished!

Nevertheless, I dragged myself out of bed today to go to work! I could finally be seen in public. Seriously, folks, it was not pretty... We are made to persist... That's how we find out who we are.- Tobias WolffI hope you all had a great Monday! And if it wasn't great, I hope at least it wasn't as terrible as my recent 4 days of sickness! Cheers!(and good health)M J
